I'm soooo late in posting a review but our wedding was on 11/4/16 and there aren't enough words that can express how awesome Chao is! My entire bridal party loved him and even the guests were amazed at how he just blended in and managed to capture some great moments. He is very well-spoken, respectful and makes this whole photography on a wedding day easy and stress-free. He is quick to reply to any concerns you may have via email or phone. Thank you for the great pictures and memories of an eventful day!

My husband and I booked Chao for our October 1st wedding in New Jersey and couldn't have asked for lovelier photos - we were so happy with the quality of the photos, Chao's overall professionalism, and his kind demeanor the entire time he worked with us (we booked him for our engagement photos as well and received glowing comments from everyone we knew). From the beginning, Chao was very down-to-earth, making sure to build a good rapport with us and explaining his contract fully so that we understood what we would be paying for; any questions we had after our in-person meeting were answered in an extremely polite and timely fashion - I never had to wait more than a day or two to hear back (which, from my experience, can be difficult to pull off for busy photographers!). I got the impression that Chao really understood the value in building good relationships with his clients, and we appreciated that a lot. As for the wedding itself, I was really impressed with Chao's timeliness and how he managed to blend in during the event. He did a great job of including the important shots that I had requested in a prior email, and in spite of our having to have the ceremony inside due to the potential for inclement weather, the shots of our indoor ceremony came out beautifully. Though overcast and misty, he was able to have all of us (husband and I, wedding party, and family) outside for photos and helped us get some of the shots we were expecting to miss due to weather. That really made our day. During the reception, I didn't even notice he was there - partly because we were SO busy, but also because he blended seamlessly into the background, which really alleviated my anxieties (I'm quite camera-shy). He captured a lot of great, candid moments during the night, and his relaxed communication style helped us feel at ease every step of the way. We never felt rushed or pushed around. After the wedding, we received preview shots four days after the wedding (a nice honeymoon surprise!) and we received all of our edited shots two months from the wedding day, which was extremely reasonable. All of the photos were stunning and brought back so many happy memories of our day; our friends, who were there to view them with us on New Years' Day, all had such positive things to say about the photos they saw as well, and we know we'll cherish them for years to come. Chao's talent for capturing special moments, both posed and candid, shines through in his photos, and working with someone so amicable and approachable was a breath of fresh air in an otherwise hectic time planning our wedding. I wholeheartedly recommend Chao to anybody looking for a painless wedding photography experience!

Chao was the photographer for our wedding in March, as well as for our engagement photos in the prior year, and he really went above and beyond in every possible way. Prior to the engagement photoshoot, which was in our neighborhood, Chao checked out the area and found so many gorgeous locations that we never would have noticed on our own. The photos turned out beautifully and we were thrilled to have them for our save the dates and our wedding website. In the year leading up to the wedding, Chao answered all of our questions promptly and thoroughly, and on the day of the wedding, he was incredibly patient and professional. He really captured all of the excitement and happiness of the day - and we were thrilled to receive a number of photos just a few days after the wedding, and the rest of the photos and the photo album all within the timeframes that were originally outlined. We are both so grateful that Chao was our photographer and really can't recommend him enough.

Great shot by Chao at our wedding reception

See all

As a nervous and very particular bride( or bridezilla) , I can be handful and Chao was just beyond patient.

We had multiple…read moremeetings with them in preparation for the wedding and I sent him specific pictures and inspirational videos and ideas of what I wanted. On the day of the wedding they made sure to address everything on my list! His artistic vision really came to life. First thing in the morning they arrived with an entire team of professionals who guided us and gave us direction and specific cues to capture the perfect shot. They managed the time well and we had so many amazing photos and videos to choose from. They told us exactly what to do, how to pose, how to stand or look but made it fun and enjoyable. As far as videos, Evgeniy and his team were shooting videos from the moment they got there until the moment it was over. we had the drone footage of our ceremony and our choreographed dance that was very important to us. Which they captured perfectly. Everyone always says, you spend so much time and money preparing for the wedding day that after it's over, all you have are the pictures and videos as memories. It is absolutely worth it to find a quality team and without hesitations I would choose them again. Highly recommend for your special occasions.
